In two years the state of Mhuu sota, doing its own fire insurance on state’ bulldings, has carried policies nsnenfi}as gl,ssq;sal,’n an ad- ministration ¢ $ and a total firé loss of $8,827.68, The insurance fund'charges the| same’ rates as the stock companies, and on this basis Samuel D. Works, state insurance commissioner, figures that in two years of self-insurance the state has gained $78,402.34, rep- resenting the excess of earned prem- iums-over expenses and losses, and has a reserve of $77,018.42. In dition, there is still $80,064 left of the appropriation by the legislature, which will be tfansterred to ‘the'in- surance account next year. 2 Mr. Works concedes that a big fire [any cultivatidg “whatever in the corn |- in one of the state institutions will make his beautiful success look mighty shaky, but hopes through the vigilance of George H. Nettleton, fire prevention inspector, who con- stantly is prodding the imstitution heads to avoid fire hazzards, thn:r there will be no serious losses, and that soon the insurance account will be so0 large that the legislature need make no further appropriations for the purpose.

Mr. Ziegler moved to Bemidji from Tomahawk, Wls., six years ago, the first two years of lLis residence here being spent in the real estate busi- ness. He was associated with Fred Ziegler, now of Minneapolis. Four years ago he established a second hand store and since that time he has been dealing in new and sec- ond hand hardware, clothing and fur- niture. He has always been prom- inent in socialist circles, on two occa- A mmnmo of Oblllloll‘Amnnl Grow- ors Raurdlng the Practice. 8 There s, difference of opin among aifalfa growers in regard to the practice. of cultivating the surface of |’ alfalfa fields ‘after the removal of a |- t:rop. says the lpwn Homestead. In the dry regions the effect of surface cul- tivation is to strengthen the growth and thicken the crop, but there 18 some |: Question as to the advisability of doing belt. The reason for this is that farm- ing implements tend, in many cases, to split the alfalfa crowns in such a way as to' cause the root to rot, and because of thib many successful alfaifa growers :do little work on the ‘surface after getting-a stand. This matter 18 briefly discussed ln the following extract -sent out by the ‘Farm Improvement association of Win- nebago county, IlL.: “The best time to cultivate’ nlfalh is in the spring after danger of freez- ing, before-the:plants have made too much start. : The next best time to cultivate {8 in the fall after the last cutting. - Alfalfa may be cultivated im- mediately after the first or second cut- ting, but this 18 not very practical on account of lack of time and labor and ‘ess desirable than spring or fall cul- tivation, because summer cultivation sions being a candidate for alderman. |’ Of late he has been organizer of the local and was at one time secretary. He was enterprising and highly re-|. spected as a business man. He was a member of the Bemidji band, playing first cornet, ‘and-had may check’ the growth of theé alfalfa and 1s lkely fo leave the ground toc loose and - perhaps . too.- cloddy -and dusty.. . The. alfalfa:shovel cultivator asked to be excused from the band or alfalfa spring tooth harrow is the rehearsal of Sunday morning, saying that he regretted that he would not be able to attend, but that his:family had planned on a trip. He was al- ways a faithful member of the musi- cal organization, rarely missing & re~ hearsal and always taking ‘keen in- terest in its progress. Mr. Ziegler's death comes as' & great shock to the residents -of Be- midji and the entire city is saddened by the affair. Mr. Stich’s Story. “When Mr. Ziegler jumped I stop— ped the boat, but immediately started it when I realized that I must act quick. I turned it around and started for the baby, her father hav- ing disappeared after reachiig her. 1 barely caught her as the boat passed by, and a second later she would have been drowned also. I was weak fol- lowing the tragery and I cannot re- member the details that followed. 1t | o is terrible. I do not think that Mr. Ziegler had been in the water ten minutes when he went down,” said Mr. Stich, who has worked for Mr. Ziegler for three years, Stich cannot swim.

Continuing; Mr. Plattenburg said: “If you must have cheap gaods I can tell you the way to get them. Take away the tariff and let Amer- ican labor compete with the cheap labor of Burope; admit the Chinese coolie who works for eight cents per day; repeal the child labor laws and send your children to the sweat shops to make cheap clothing. -You can’t afford . to do either, - however. Here the:speaker told a story of boys and girls going to the large cities, saying that a very large percentage of them were failures. “To ' keep your boys and girls at home;” he sald, “make your churches the- best, your schools the most efficient, your streets the finest and your citizenship the cleanest. You can make Bemdfl the finest:city in the land.” 4 The Bouchih- Opera gompany was one of the strong attractions of the course.
